Muslims in India, except for those living in Kerala and Karnataka, will observe 28th fast (Roza) of the ongoing Ramzan, also spelt as Ramadan, month on May 22. To begin their fast, Muslims take a pre-dawn meal, called Sehri, and abstain from food and water throughout the day. They break their fast soon after the sunset. The evening meal is called Iftar. The timings for Sehri and Iftar differ from city to city due to geographical factors. Eid 2020 and Moon Sighting Date in India: When Will Ramzan End and Eid al-Fitr be Celebrated?
